This apparently abstract painting is based on a field of sunflowers. Bright colors and wild, bold shapes evoke the sense of childish playfulness and positivity. Yet between the shapes one can notice a harsh black shadow. Is this positivity hiding something dark and tragic. There can not be happiness without sadness. And even on the brightest of days there is always a shadow lurking nearby. ---------------------------- The artwork is signed on the back and accompanied with a certificate of authenticity.
